Well, I don't know about container gardening. HOWEVER, 3 years ago I purchased pine cone ginger outside on the North side of my home in a 3X3 area. I have the take over of the pine cone ginger now 3X33 feet! In your area of Canada I would suggest this for the container. Purchase some potting soil - good quality. Fill your pot about 3/4 to the top. Put in the Rhizone (sorry my spelling is horrible). Cover Rizone with 1 inch of potting soil. Place in a warm window. Since you are in Canada I doubt your Ginger will begin producing in May. If you want to grow ginger so that you can use it in dish's you will neet to let the plant grow for a year or two, moving it progressively from potting size to larger potting sizes. It is important that the soil the ginger is places in is mildly damp. DO NOT OVERWATER. I hope this helps. I am an expert on outside ginger. But sadly I do not grow anything in the house except Tillandsia's (AKA air plants). I live in zone 9b/10 in Vero Beach, Florida
